That would be awesome on an employee's annual review. That’s where I stole my delusions of adequacy line. I've read a bunch of really funny ones. I'll post some.
  • "Since my last report, this employee has reached rock bottom and has started to dig."
  • "His men would follow him anywhere but only out of morbid curiosity."
  • "This associate is really not so much a has-been, but more of a definitely won't be."
  • "Works well when under constant supervision and cornered like a rat in a trap."
  • "When she opens her mouth, it seems that this is only to change feet."
  • "He would be out of his depth in a parking lot puddle."
  • "This young lady has delusions of adequacy."
  • "He sets low personal standards and then consistently fails to achieve them."
  • "This employee should go far -- and the sooner he starts, the better we'll be."
  • "This employee is depriving a village somewhere of an idiot."
  • "This employee should not be allowed to breed."
  • "This man has the whole six pack but is missing the plastic thingy that holds them all together."
  • "He certainly takes a long time to make his pointless."
  • "He doesn't have ulcers, but he is a carrier."
  • "He's been working with glue too much."
  • "He would argue with a signpost."
  • "He has a knack for making strangers immediately."
  • "When his IQ reaches 50, he should sell."
  • "Is apparently very careful with equipment, as his tools show very little signs of wear."
  • "He is 25 years old, and still has to get his mother's permission to leave the house."
  • "He stated in his resume that he knew the things required to do the job. Unfortunately it now has become painfully clear that the skills he possesses involve nothing but bragging and know-it-all attitudes."
  • "This employee seems inadequate of accomplishing anything at all during work hours, beyond flirting with co-workers and doing her nails."

But the real issue is if he has an "acceptable name"?

Without that, he would never get hired in the first place, let alone a review.

I come to praise Hillary, and to bury her.....

I just saw Edwards endorsement of Obama. He did start off with a ringing endorsement of Hillary. I have to say it was the one of the strangest political moments I've seen.

Yea, I agree, and I am not sure how much it is going to contribute to the overall movement. Some of those are endorsements are more about the person giving them vs. those on the receiving end.

One can only hope that Edwards will convince more superdelelegates over to the Obama side so they can finally end the Democratic Primary and get to the part where Obama beats McCain.

That was a speech with a purpose. The purpose was to say, "I love you both and I'll make a great VP."

I had that feeling too...and he would make a fine V.P.. He may even become President if those backwards, redneck, racist, assholes in West Virginia stop fucking their sisters long enough to take their huntin' rifle to shoot Obama.

Out of bitterness? Or religion? Or because it would annoy everyone else in Bugsplat Junction to shoot somebody more local?

That was one of the most entertaining, politically-based, cockfights I've seen in the past hour. I applaud both Radar and TheMercenary.

Thanks!
To Radar: why are you lumping socialists and fascists together? They are two distinct political ideologies that fought against each other.
To Merc, re: the 8 years and Democrats comment: I have hopes that it won't be worse, though politicians in general are not to be trusted. But really, they're going to have to work to make them worse than the past 8.

I don't really think so. There is no way they can pay for all the promises they have made, esp if Obama is elected. Our society is about to take it in the shorts economically in the name of fixing all that needs to be fixed. I am not a fan of wealth redistribution, taxes, and the government telling me what I can and cannot do (with reasonalble exceptions).

Nobody wants to pay for the things they don't believe in. For me, it's the Iraq war.
